天上天下
Summary
In one unusual Tokyo high school, education takes a backseat to brawling as warring clubs wreak havoc in the hallways and chaos in the classrooms, all vying to be the baddest team around! Although they often contribute their fair share, only a handful of students serve to stem the tide of violence in this untamed outpost. These are the few, the proud, the powerful: the members of the Juken Club!(Source: CMX)
Background
The first 18 volumes of Tenjou Tenge were published in English as Tenjho Tenge by DC Comics under the CMX imprint from March 1, 2005, to September 8, 2009, before the publisher went defunct. The CMX release came under heavy criticism from fans for editing and censoring the sexual content. VIZ Media republished the series uncut as Tenjo Tenge: Full Contact Edition under the VIZ Signature imprint as 2-in-1 omnibus volumes from June 21, 2011, to February 5, 2013. It was also published in Italian by Panini Comics from September 2001 to August 25, 2011; and in Brazilian Portuguese by Editora JBC from January 2009 to July 2011.

Summary
For some people, high school represents the opportunity for a fresh start. You can take new classes and make new friends. For Souichiro Nagi and Bob Makihara, though, high school means something different: the chance to become the top fighters in the entire student body! Too bad Toudou Academy is the hardest possible place to realize their dreams. Their new high school is no ordinary academic institution. Rather than concentrating on classic subjects like math and science, Toudou Academy was created for the sole purpose of reviving the martial arts in Japan!As a result, Souichiro’s aspirations to become top dog are cut short when he runs afoul of Masataka Takayanagi and Maya Natsume. The two upperclassmen easily stop the freshmen duo’s rampage across school, but rather than serving as a deterrent, it only stokes their competitive fire. What kind of monstrous fighters attend Toudou Academy? Are there any stronger than Masataka and Maya? And why in the world is Maya’s younger sister stalking Souichiro? Learn the answers to these questions and more in Tenjou Tenge!
